Or at least that's the info I've managed to glean from a trawl around the web! I did have details of a now defunct Otter association, but I can't find the forum post now (probably deleted in a data purge) and I've not had a reply to my message to the person who posted it unfortunately.
Please post any info you have here, and feel free to ask questions. With any luck given a bit of time searches for information on the Otter sailing dinghy and there will be a few answers to go with them.
